Did I find the one metric not covered in publicly available game log datasets?
I am looking to create a data viz for a specific stadium to answer “Which endzone has the most touchdowns?”
Challenge: In order to know which endzone (North/south) I need coin toss data since it affects the direction for scoring each quarter for the Home team. Not only is the initial starting toss and decision difficult, but OT is another layer of complexity.
Positive note: Helped me get decent at using Python to pull NFL Play-by_play data
Has anyone done this? Hoping to compile across numerous seasons, but if there is a source, a process, a thought…..I am all ears
